This may have been addressed in another post buried somewhere already, but has anyone used the VR power wedge with the Vmaxx TB? Or does the new TB do the same thing theyre claiming with the wedge?

Were you able to tell the difference between the two or did you install them at the same time and get one big kick?

as long as you know what they do and have actual expectations within the range they provide, they are great mods. The problem comes when people expect their car to feel like it just gained 50HP when purchasing a $100-150 part.

Yea I know what you mean, I was just curious if the two complimented each other or if the TB would drown out the effects of the wedge and make it not worth the money. Vararam is right here in Stinkadena, TX where I am so not far of a drive to pick one up and do the TB when I get back from a job in November.

adding the 2 has helped my car pull alot harder in the lower RPM range.
